Genius

My book of iPad tips hit the iBookstore and the Amazon Kindle store this morning. It's something quite a few readers at iPad Insight had suggested I do, and something I'd been meaning to do for a long while.

I was total rookie to the process of getting an eBook published, or a book of any kind for that matter. It has definitely been a big learning experience, and I hope the book is going to be a good resource for iPad users. Here's the elevator pitch for it at the Kindle store:

This book will help you to get the most out of your iPad. If you’re a relatively new user it should help you to navigate around the iPad and get more comfortable with using it. If you’re a more experienced user it will show you some nifty shortcuts, tips and short guides to some of the more powerful features of the iPad.

I’ve grouped the how-to articles and tips in this book into eight chapters. The book does not need to be read sequentially - you can peruse the Table of Contents and dive right into chapters or individual articles that interest you most. I also don’t think you need to worry about trying to plough through the whole book in just a few reading sessions. Rather, I hope you can first read the sections that will help you out the most right away and then dip back into it to explore more tips and topics whenever they fit into your usage of the iPad. I’d love to think that this book will become a handy resource you’ll keep around and refer back to often.
